Good Morning! I come here earnestly ask the help of an advanced user on Linux and Android. I understand enough of Android , but I'm following a tutorial on XDA that teaches compile my Galaxy S4 kernel so that I can use external USB wireless cards on my smartphone . The problem is that I do not recognize most of the commands in (Terminal) Linux , I'm always stuck in some steps that can be up to beasts , but as I am a layman when it comes to Linux , I just me losing all . Finally , I will provide the tutorial below, any opinion or suggestion will be of great help ! So far only able to download and install the ADB fastboot , but had to search and use another command , since this had not worked in my Kali.

Have anyone tried to create an custom splash screen for the PLAY? ( the boot logo right after power on the phone before the boot animation ) I found a few apps that help to do the job themselves but only work on HTC devices and have no support to Xperia now
it's been tried and done by doomlord. He changed it in his kernels for our play. It's located in the boot.img and can't be flashed as on HTC devices.
Check this thread out for details and I might add that this is no one click solution:

Also been talk about in this thread where i got the above link:

Yes, I was trying to follow the instruction but stuck at ramdisk repacking step by using azuzu provided repacking tool since I could not run it on my lappy (whenever I try to run the exe file, the cmd windows just pop up for a second and close itself so that I could not perform any command ). As I am a newbie and not able to post any thread in develpment forum, I have no choice but to ask around. It is much appreciated if you can guide me on this.
You need to open a normal cmd window on your pc/laptop and then 'cd' to the path of the .exe file you're referring to and need to execute the commands from.
It would be something like this when the cmd window is open:
cd \path\of\the\.exe (enter)
Then you will be able to execute your commands from there as postet by doomlord
Hope this makes sense.
Regards Dousan
Yeah, you are seem right. I should not execute the exe file directly but open a new cmd windows and fire the file name manually. But now I am having problem with using the script. azuzu has provided instruction but I just could not get what the actual parameter use to repack my ramdisk. By the way, it would help alot if you know any link to download custom splash screen image for the PLAY.
Sorry for my noob question and thanks a lot for your help.
Hello All,
I have a specific question here - I use a program called Sardu to boot into various distros/install windows/troubleshoot PCs. What I would like is to have an ISO of any linux distro (linux mint or DSL comes to mind) that has ADB previously setup and working in a persistence file (very basic linux knowledge here, not sure if it's possible).
Basically I want to be able to choose said linux distro from my bootable USB - launch it any PC i have access too and be able to run ADB commands for the purpose of troubleshooting/rooting of friends/colleagues android devices etc...
If this is at all possible, I am willing to learn the steps needed. I'm not looking for someone to do the work for me (however that would be awesome too ) but I am out of my depth and would love for this to be possible.
TIA for any and all help,
Josh

Look up how to mount an iso read write.
Then mount the iso and add your adb files.
Then write the iso to usb.

Hi Guys,
i found something interesting for all the Car Enthusiasts out there on Github.
Im a newbie here so i cant post links but you can find it here
github.com/TrentSeed/BMW_E46_Android_RPi_IBUS_Controller
My Problem is that i cant find the " android/bin/BMW_RPi_IBUS_Controller.apk " like the developer described
Do i have to install it via Java on my Android Radio or how does it work? It seems like the app is aready "open" and not packaged
Im kind of a noob so what do i have to do that i can install the apk/app ?
I already ordered the USB Stick i need for the communication..And i own a HuiFei Android Radio Device so i think i wont need an Android Phone/Tablet for that...
My second problem here (on Raspberry Pi)
" Install python modules: pyserial, libbluetooth-dev, pybluz
easy_install pyserial
apt-get install libbluetooth-dev
pip install pybluz"
the last command "pip install plybuz" dont work for me it always says command not found ( yes im using always the sudo command in front) but without it also dont work
I think that could be a really interesting project when it works
Nobody?
Hello,There is some ways where you can Linux system on android ,
1.you have to download 'complete Linux installer' ,Terminal Emulator for android' and last one which is ' android vnc'.
2.Open Complete Linux installer ,It'll install boot scripts which are needed . Off course you need rooted android phone for this.
3.You will see Linux distros which are available for your device e.g. Debian,Ubuntu, Kali Linux etc.
4.Then click on any one and it will show to download these distrisos and further procedures.
Thank You Reeding..download all things from playstor

This forum is for newbies finding their way around XDA Developers, it isn't a development section.

So I want to put Kali Nethunter on my SM-S127DL
I tried following a tutorial but failed to achieve boot loader unlock...
So I want to install Kali Nethunter for the tools but I also want to get away from having to be logged into Google, Samsung or Apple.
Has anyone unlocked the loader and installed Kali Nethunter? Can someone point me into the right direction?
I also have the SM-S127DL it seems to be a more locked down version of the A12 so I too am looking for assistance with getting a clean rom on this.
There is not OEM unlock setting under dev mode settings.

bruh.. .. .. .. -_-
If you cant unlock a bootloader using a tutorial theres no chance on earth youre going to be able to use kali linux or any of the "tools" it has in it , which require learning each of them to use also. Its not just click a button and become master hacker... it took me roughly 3 years to get a full understanding of the stuff and i barely even know how to use the tools , thats just installing and building custom kernels unlocking bootloaders etc ..
nor is installing kali going to stop you from being logged into google samsung or apple .. nethunter is just an app.. your entire phone will stay the same , youll just have a nethunter app now thats all , with the exception of hacking wifi , you can do everything else that kali can just by downloading termux from fdroid and andronix from the google play store. they are both free and andronix allows you to install kali in any android phone wqithout unlocking the bootloader or rooting it with one click. just install the Kali Xfce version and then in the command line (if it doesnt say root then you need to type commands with the word sudo before them) but anyway assuming it says [email protected]: type "apt update && apt upgrade -y && apt install kali-linux-default kali-themes kali-menu" without the quotes and that will give you a full kali setup ..when thats done just type "vncserver -start" and then use the vnc viewer app to connect to "localhost:1" and presto you have a full visual desktop now
